Once the WordPress platform files and folders are unpacked, you need to upload them to the hosting server.

Upload the files and folders to the server into the PUBLIC_HTML or WWW directory.

If you can’t find the PUBLIC_HTML or WWW directory on your hosting server, contact your hosting provider and find out where you should upload the website files to.
